It stars Junko Yagami, a Japanese vocalist known for late-1970s songs like \"Bay City\" that have drawn listeners worldwide, and in 2022 she became the first Japanese artist inducted into the Women Songwriters Hall of Fame. Bandmaster and drummer Ross Pederson, a founding member of Snarky Puppy, leads four musicians through newly arranged American standards tied to Route 66 alongside Yagami's most celebrated Japanese compositions. Route 66 serves as the organizing metaphor: a road that carried American music westward, absorbing everything in its path and transforming it into something new.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/new-york/events/junko-yagami-pop-meets-jazz-on-route-66-83417/", "official_url": "https://www.birdlandjazz.com/tm-event/junko-yagami-pop-meets-jazz-on-route-66/", "image": "https://noky.io/images/c8e1f4cd365e610ffb8fdddeae03e162274d7d24e3fddd256b292d497098c8c3-2000.webp", "dates": [{"start": "2026-11-15T19:00:00-05:00", "end": null, "place": "Birdland Jazz Club", "address": "West 44th Street 315, New York", "tickets": "sold_out"}, {"start": "2026-11-15T21:30:00-05:00", "end": null, "place": "Birdland Jazz Club", "address": "West 44th Street 315, New York", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "Eri Yamamoto Duo", "start": "2026-11-08T15:00:00-05:00", "end": null, "place": "Arthur's Tavern", "address": "57 Grove St, New York, NY 10014", "price": "", "price_from": null, "price_to": null, "category": "concerts", "tags": ["music/jazz"], "description": "Eri Yamamoto Duo is a live jazz performance at Arthur's Tavern in New York City.
